bmp back to DXT problem

More than likely this is something I am doing wrong, but 9 times out of 10 after editing and painting I reload the file from the paint program (GIMP in my case) and can see my accomplishments. When I save the file, or convert it back to DXT3 the program indicates it is converting but when I go to FS to view my work it is the same as before I edited/painted. I can reload it into DXTbmp and it is the same pre-edited file. I've verified that the save location is correct. ? ? ?

It sounds like it is not overwriting for some reason. Check that the target file is not set readonly.
If you are on Vista then make sure you have the latest DXTBmp. This has Vista support built in.

If the date of the target file is not changing after you do a save then that is a sure sign DXTBmp has been unable to overwrite the file successfully. If all else fails save to a different location and then copy the file to the target folder
